Kris 0 #8 August 22, 2003 QuoteWhat is this "CD" you speak of and why on earth did you "buy" it? After downloading the MP3's for the Evanesence album, I immediately went out and bought the CD and re-ripped it at 320K. I don't have a problem buying CD's for bands I truly enjoy and want to support, and Amy Lee's band definitely qualifies.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitaniumLegs 8 #9 August 22, 2003 Check out their website. You can download their lyrics and videos and other cool stuff. Most bands just give you news, tour dates, and links to buy albums and T-shirts. (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VisionAir 0 #11 August 22, 2003 Did ya know they're from Arkansas..... They're just a bunch of bible thumpin', choir hicks from the sticks. Just kidding...religious based lyrics or not...I agree they do indeed rock. I wish I had gotten to see them in Little Rock before they became supah stahs. Huh?!? What cloud?!? Oh that!!!

txblondie 0 #14 August 22, 2003 Nice pic! Excellent band, love the music, love the band, Amy Lee's voice is awesome, and I wish I looked like her; she's gorgeous! Probably in the top five of my current fave bands; have two copies of the CD, one burned and an original (so I can have one at home AND in the car!). ***************************************** Blondes do have more fun!

CDs cut off the highs and lows of the sound spectrum, the digital incoding kills (read: flattens) the sound. Since I don't have the money for a nice high-end system like I want, MP3s work for me, especially when you have the very wide range of taste I do...I couldn't afford to live, eat, etc otherwise.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Kris 0 #16 August 23, 2003 QuoteAnd you listen to CDs? CDs cut off the highs and lows of the sound spectrum, the digital incoding kills (read: flattens) the sound. Not true. It all comes down to how the CD has been mastered. A CD will always be better than an MP3 though. I take my high-end audio quite seriously.

AggieDave 6 #17 August 23, 2003 Well, that was my understanding, but I could very well be wrong...you know, I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken... I'd still rather he it live or just play the music myself, though.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since I don't have the money for a nice high-end system like I want, MP3s work for me, especially when you have the very wide range of taste I do.. Whoa...big misconception, dude. Go on www.howstuffworks.com and look up .mp3s. The way MP3 compression works is that the software identifies sounds that humans don't hear together. In other words if two sounds are played simultaneously and one dominates the other so that you don't hear that other sound, the software strips out that sound that you probably won't hear anyway. In short, MP3 removes the sounds it thinks you won't hear anyway to make the file smaller. The higher the compression, the more it removes. That's why the quality continues to go down as you make the file size smaller. And besides, most MP3s are ripped from CD from the first place. So if there was a problem with their quality, it would be reproduced anyway. The deal with CDs is they are digitally formatted. But there's a code on them usually: AAD=Analog recording, analog mastering ADD=Analog recording, digital mastering DDD=digital recording, digital mastering An AAD Cd might be lower quality than a different song from a DDD cd ripped to MP3. But that AAD CD ripped to MP3 would lose even more quality. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
